You've missed a lot my friend. For a fantastic write up on the history of the MvC franchise, check out Gamesradar's feature here. For gameplay mechanics, look no further than the OT for MvC3. For everything else, Shoryuken.com's old Hyper Guide and iPlaywinner's Guide which includes our very own Karsticles' fantastic Team Building Guide.
If you prefer general video tutorials for characters amongst many other varied MvC3 and UMvC3-related productions, look no further than GAF's own Maximillian's YouTube Channel, featuring his Assist Me series of character tutorials. Additionally, FingerCramp has been doing a series of UMvC3 Character Rehab tutorials that are generally informative.
If your into the nitty gritty of how the game evolved through professional tournaments in it's short lifespan, check out Dahbomb's Statistical Analysis of Tournament Character Usage.
And last but not least, check out the thread for the survey shaowebb did of GAFers about UMvC3! Also, bonus MahvelGAF image!:
Can I buy this in stores?
Unfortunately, no. UMvC3 is only available digitally for PS4, coming in at around a 4.5 GB download.
What's it come with?
Almost everything expect for Magneto's DLC skin. Every other piece of DLC released for UMvC3 is included the PS4 version and it even comes with a new Gallery Mode.
Is this really only PS4 exclusive?
Actually, no. While UMvC3 is available on the NA PSN store as of now, it will be coming to Xbox One and Steam this March.
Do I have to shell out another $40 for a game I already bought?
$25 actually. Here in the United States that is.
Show off your team to your fellow GAFers by using this handy alternate colours guide here!
Pre-release MvC3 was an interesting time full of hype, sometimes too much hype, in which case it was archived and now chronicled for all of GAF to look back on and laugh at. Click here to see GAFers get exposed!
Special thanks to enzo_gt for making these great Marvel OTs that I shamelessly ripped off. Another thanks to Dahbomb for all the work he's done over the years compiling change logs and patch notes for this game. Final thanks to MarvelGAF for being here for another exciting time as we band here together until next year for the big gun: Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite.
As rumors swirl that this could be the final appearance of the X-Men in Vs. games, I offer this special tribute:
Memories.... We'll miss you, Mag-fucking-neto, and Mango Sentinel. And last, but not least...
IS MAHVEL BAYBEE!
